Multiple blood-brain barrier transport mechanisms limit bumetanide accumulation, and therapeutic potential, in the mammalian brain [PDF]
There is accumulating evidence that bumetanide, which has been used over decades as a potent loop diuretic, also exerts effects on brain disorders, including autism, neonatal seizures, and epilepsy, which are not related to its effects on the kidney but ...

Indole contributes to tetracycline resistance via the outer membrane protein OmpN in Vibrio splendidus [PDF]
As an interspecies and interkingdom signaling molecule, indole has recently received attention for its diverse effects on the physiology of both bacteria and hosts. In this study, indole increased the tetracycline resistance of Vibrio splendidus.

Acinetobacter baumannii: Mechanisms of Antimicrobial Resistance
Gram-negative non-fermenting bacteria Acinetobacter baumannii are a common cause of severe complications (pneumonia, bacteremia, sepsis) in the clinic of internal diseases, especially in patients with weakened immune system: 3,2% of bacteremia and sepsis

DNA repair systems and the pathogenesis of Mycobacterium tuberculosis: varying activities at different stages of infection [PDF]
Mycobacteria, including most of all MTB (Mycobacterium tuberculosis), cause pathogenic infections in humans and, during the infectious process, are exposed to a range of environmental insults, including the host's immune response.

An Arabidopsis flavonoid transporter is required for anther dehiscence and pollen development [PDF]
FLOWER FLAVONOID TRANSPORTER (FFT) encodes a multidrug and toxin efflux family transporter in Arabidopsis thaliana. FFT (AtDTX35) is highly transcribed in floral tissues, the transcript being localized to epidermal guard cells, including those of the ...

Overexpression of multidrug resistance-1 (MDR-1), and multidrug resistance-associated protein (MRP) genes has been linked with resistance to chemotherapy in vitro and in vivo. Their role in chemotherapy resistance in pediatric rhabdomyosarcoma is unclear. The study was undertaken to analyze the expression of MDR-1 and MRP genes in the embryonal and the

Molecular Mechanisms Used by Salmonella to Evade the Immune System [PDF]
Human and animal pathogens are able to circumvent, at least temporarily, the sophisticated immune defenses of their hosts. Several serovars of the Gram-negative bacterium Salmonella enterica have been used as models for the study of pathogen-host ...
